Award Expert Service

Let the Upgrd experts help you use your frequent flier miles to obtain the best award possible. We will search award inventory on the airlines associated with your points to find economy, business and first class seats to exotic destinations. You simply tell us where and when you want to go and we will search for available options. We specialize in finding last-minute availability.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does it work? You provide your destination and dates of travel and we will search for available award bookings. We will use our expertise to search a number of airlines associated with your mileage program and find the best options for your dates and destination.

I only have American Express Membership Rewards, can I still use your service? Yes, we can help you transfer you miles to another program where you can redeem your miles for a business or first class award.

How many miles do I need? It all depends where you want to go and whether you want to travel in economy, business or first class. But one-way domestic economy awards, on some airlines, in the continental United States start at 4,500 miles.
